Junior5 missed a simple draw by 44...Rxg2+
Junior5 could find it if it had more time(10 minutes per move was enough) but
other programs like Genius or Fritz5 can find 44...Rxg2+ in  0 seconds.
Junior5 believed that in pawn endings a pawn advantage is a big advantage
It is right in most of the times but not in this position.
